Living In Another World With A Farm Chapter 8660: START-1

Zhao Hai stood before the Yin Ghost Sect's grand hall. Naturally, the hall had since been renamed by Zhao Hai and was now known as the Blood Kill Sect, with a colossal character for "kill" prominently displayed. He was positioned in the square outside the main hall, beside a massive formation disk spanning over two meters in diameter. Standing with him was the imposing figure of Yao Jianhao, the Sect Leader of the Giant Demon Sect.

Zhao Hai took a deep breath, his gaze fixed on the formation disk. "It begins. This is the final stage. Once this is complete, our Three Talents Formation will be finished. With this grand formation established, I dare say that even if everyone in the Blood Sea Realm attacks us, we will be able to hold them off."

Yao Jianhao's eyes also gleamed as he observed the immense array board. The Giant Demon Sect had always been somewhat lacking in array expertise. However, over the past month, they had absorbed a considerable amount of knowledge from Wen Yuming, which would undoubtedly prove invaluable in enhancing their array skills.

Zhao Hai turned to Yao Jianhao, continuing, "Once the Three Talents Formation is finalized, I believe even an Almighty from the higher realms would find it extremely difficult to breach it. However, should an Almighty from the higher realms actually launch an attack, Martial Uncle Yao, you must ensure the Giant Demon Sect's protective formation is placed at the core of your main formation. Only then can you effectively block the assault."

Yao Jianhao, hearing Zhao Hai's words, was initially taken aback. Then, his eyes brightened. "Can it truly withstand the attacks of an Almighty from the higher realms? The might of an upper realm Almighty is formidable. You haven't actually witnessed an upper realm Almighty in action before, have you?" Yao Jianhao knew that Zhao Hai had not been present during the Blood Slaughter Sect's previous troubles and thus likely hadn't experienced the power of an upper realm Almighty firsthand.

Zhao Hai gazed skyward, his voice deep. "I haven't seen an Almighty from the upper realms in action myself, but the seniors of the Blood Slaughter Sect left me a cache of precious treasures. When they battled the Corpse Demon Patriarch, they not only wounded him but also severed one of his fingers. I obtained that finger."

The revelation stunned Yao Jianhao. He then looked towards Zhao Hai, inquiring, "Was it you who caused the killing aura and the changes within the Blood Slaughter Sect to dissipate?" Yao Jianhao was no fool. The cultivators of the Blood Sea Realm had always found the rapid disappearance of the killing aura and deathly aura from the Blood Slaughter Sect peculiar. Now, with Zhao Hai mentioning his acquisition of the Corpse Demon Patriarch's finger, a connection immediately formed in his mind. The sudden transformation of the Blood Slaughter Sect evidently had something to do with Zhao Hai. This prompted his direct question.

Zhao Hai nodded. "Indeed, it is related," Ye Mo stated. "When the boat was newly refined, it required some energy to nourish it. Thus, I returned to the Blood Slaughter Sect and utilized the death Qi and killing Qi to sustain the boat. It was also during that time that I acquired the Corpse Demon Patriarch's finger and a few drops of his blood. The finger and blood contained the Corpse Demon Patriarch's most primal power. Through this power, I gained insight into the capabilities of the higher realms. That is why I instructed the members of the Blood Slaughter Sect to remain hidden until we possessed the strength to contend with the Almighty beings from the upper realms."

"They possess the strength to contend with the Almighty beings from the upper realms?" Yao Jianhao stared at Zhao Hai, bewildered. He truly hadn't anticipated Zhao Hai making such a declaration. Within the Blood Sea Realm, no one dared to claim they could stand against an Almighty from the upper realms. Yet, here was Zhao Hai, boldly stating such a possibility. How could Yao Jianhao not be utterly astonished?

Zhao Hai affirmed with a deep voice, "Precisely. To confront the Almighty beings from the higher realm means we must face them directly. Should we fail to contend against them, our Blood Slaughter Sect will inevitably be annihilated once they descend. It has already been nearly two full months since we eradicated the Yin Yang Sect and the Yin Ghost Sect. That the patriarchs of those two sects have yet to make an appearance is beyond my initial expectations. However, I am certain their move is imminent, which is precisely why I remain so anxious. We absolutely must finalize the Three Talents Formation. With this formation in place, we will be capable of withstanding a portion of the attacks from the higher realm. Furthermore, should the Corpse Demon Sect dare to attack us, this array will serve as our defense."

"How do you intend to fight against those beings from the higher realm?" Yao Jianhao inquired. "They possess immense power. You are aware that the Blood Slaughter Sect deployed all its might to repel the Corpse Demon Patriarch's assault, yet they were ultimately wiped out. It was a complete annihilation, leaving not a single island of the Blood Slaughter Sect standing. Regrettably, our Giant Demon Patriarch was in seclusion at the time; otherwise, they would not have seized such an opportune moment."

Gazing towards the heavens, Zhao Hai responded, "You shall soon see. This time, regardless of which Almighty figure from the higher realm seeks to target our Blood Slaughter Sect, I shall make them regret it. As for the Corpse Demon Ancestor, I remain uncertain if he still possesses the capacity to challenge us. If he does, it will merely be his misfortune. This time, I shall have my vengeance."

Zhao Hai then lowered his gaze to the formation plate before him and commenced forming a series of intricate hand seals. His fingers moved with such astonishing rapidity that only fleeting afterimages were discernible, rendering the exact sequence of seals impossible to follow. One by one, the seals were executed with swiftness, causing the formation plate to illuminate incrementally.

As the array board gradually brightened, Yao Jianhao perceived a potent force coalescing in the surrounding environment. This force steadily gravitated towards the formation plate, and with its accumulation, further sections of the board began to glow. Presently, all the array talismans etched onto the board were alight. Zhao Hai's movements accelerated, accompanied by the distinct sounds of wind and thunder emanating from his hands.

Yao Jianhao recognized this particular sound with acute familiarity. It was an auditory signature produced only when the speed and force exerted by one's fingers reached a specific threshold. What did this signify? It indicated that the power channeled through Zhao Hai's digits was escalating, consequently increasing the pressure upon them. Were this not the case, such forceful exertion would be unnecessary.

Initially bewildered, Yao Jianhao soon grasped the situation. Activating the disk array was no simple feat. The array harbored a formidable power that exerted direct pressure upon Zhao Hai's fingers. If the force applied by his fingers proved insufficient, the successful execution of the seals would be impossible.

Despite this, Zhao Hai appeared remarkably at ease. He had encountered such circumstances before. Although he felt considerable pressure on his fingers, it did not impede his speed in the slightest. He continued to imprint the seals onto the array board, one after another.

Approximately an hour later, Zhao Hai successfully executed the final seal. Placing his hand upon the formation plate, he proclaimed, "Activate!" Instantly, the array disc erupted in a dazzling golden luminescence. A beam of golden light then shot skyward, immediately bifurcating into two distinct streams. One of these golden beams arrowed towards the Yin Yang Sect, while the other proceeded directly towards the Giant Demon Sect.

Zhao Hai withdrew his hand. After observing the golden light's trajectory, he exhaled a long sigh. "In roughly two hours, this golden light should return. By then, the Three Talents Array will be fully operational, and the array sub-disks at the Giant Demon Sect and the Yin Yang Sect will be activated. We shall no longer need to harbor any anxieties."

Yao Jianhao gazed at the brilliant golden light ascending into the heavens and remarked in a profound tone, "This golden light is exceptionally conspicuous. It appears the entire Blood Sea Realm will soon be apprised of its activation. If the other sects harbor intentions of confronting us, they will likely be making their preparations." Yao Jianhao had not anticipated such a spectacular display upon the array board's activation.

Zhao Hai offered a smile and replied, "It matters not. Whether they are aware or not is inconsequential. This Three Talents Array is not something that any ordinary individual can manipulate. Furthermore, do not underestimate its capabilities; it possesses an autonomous defensive function. Aside from myself, not a soul can breach this array disc."

Yao Jianhao offered a nod, his words ceasing. They bypassed their quarters, heading elsewhere. Zhao Hai, observing the golden luminescence, proceeded to elucidate the operation of the array disc. The Giant Demon Sect possessed a subsidiary array disc, instrumental in commanding the Three Talents Formation. It was imperative for Yao Jianhao to grasp its functionality and the potential for its modification.

While Yao Jianhao’s proficiency in arrays was not exceptionally high, his status as a cultivator meant a fundamental understanding. Learning to operate the array disc was not a daunting task for him; it resembled the relationship between a user and a computer. Many individuals are adept at using computers, yet few could construct them. Skill in utilization and the capability for creation represent entirely distinct domains.

Two hours elapsed without notice. The brilliant golden light, which had pierced the heavens, gradually receded into the array disc. The inscribed array talismans upon it continued their luminous, rotational dance. As long as the array remained functional, these talismans would persist in their movement. A cessation of their spinning would signify a malfunction in the array disc, rendering it inoperable.

With the dissipation of the golden light, Zhao Hai exhaled a lengthy sigh of relief. His gaze fell upon the array disc before he turned to Yao Jianhao, saying, "Martial Uncle Yao, let us proceed inside. Today, we shall indulge in a celebratory drink for the successful establishment of our Three Talents Formation. Following that, we can deliberate on our subsequent endeavors."

"Excellent, a celebratory drink sounds splendid," Yao Jianhao responded with a hearty laugh. He then accompanied Zhao Hai into the room. This time, Zhao Hai guided Yao Jianhao not to the main hall, but to a side chamber. Upon their entrance, a table laden with food and wine awaited them. Zhao Hai gestured for Yao Jianhao to be seated, and Chang Jun, along with others, joined them for the occasion.

As the disciples presented the various dishes and libations, Zhao Hai raised his goblet first, addressing the assembly: "Today marks the auspicious completion of our Three Talents Formation. With this formation in place, I am confident that our two sects shall face no further apprehension within the Blood Sea Realm. Come, let us raise our cups high to toast this joyous day."

All present elevated their glasses, their rims gently clinking. Subsequently, they drained the wine contained within their goblets in a unified gesture.
